#11 What The Future Brings - Russell Buckley, Matt Monihan and Dan Clifton

Feb. 17, 2015

In Episode 11 Russell Buckley joins the crew to talk about how he helps start-ups raise capital, futurism, the sharing economy, virtual reality & jobs of the coming decades.

The guys manage to stumble across several topics including how London has emerged as Europe's answer to silicon valley, how technology is creating new jobs rather than killing them, how jobs in modern medicine and the military will be most overhauled in the next ten years and how cell phones in 25 years will be the size of red blood cells.

Oh, and we also talk about 2045 or as Russell calls it, "the year computers take over."
